The United States government argues that there is no credible use for marijuana as a medicine for any kind of ailment, even though there is a mountain of evidence showing otherwise. There are a multitude of illnesses that can be treated effectively with cannabis. Here are 10 to consider.
1. Depression.
For people who are depressed, the pharmaceutical go-to is often antidepressants like Prozac and Zoloft. These drugs treat depression by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain. The downside of antidepressants are decreased libido, birth defects, and increased suicide particularly in young people. Marijuana is better because it provides a safe euphoria without any drawbacks.
2. Nausea.
When experiencing nausea, the pharmaceutical go-to is usually Anzamet or Zofran. These are drugs that block receptors associated with nausea, and they also cause constipation, nightmares, and Parkinson’s-like symptoms. This is one where the side effects of the drug are worse than the ailment. Marijuana is better because it helps ease your stomach and allows you to eat and drink fluids.
